ShopLocket + a $100 Michael's Giveaway

Have something to sell this Holiday Season? I’ve recently discovered this great new way to sell products online called ShopLocket. There’s no crowded marketplace that you get lost in, and there’s no time
consuming and expensive setup like with some online store options. ShopLocket is neat because you're not sending your blog readers to
a different site to shop. You can sell right on your own blog or website. If you don’t have a website, not to worry! Just share a link to the ShopLocket page on Facebook or Twitter for instance. Think of it like sharing a YouTube video online, but for selling your product.

It’s really simple: go to the website, sign up, put in a few details about your product (name, description, pictures, etc.) Sellers on ShopLocket are selling everything from hand made accessories,
to t-shirts, and Halloween art. You can even sell digital goods like
these sewing patterns or Star Wars printables! You can even use it for re-selling used items!

Even their pricing is dead simple: there’s no up-front or monthly fees, you only pay when you sell. When you sell a product, you’re charged 2.5% plus any payment processing fees from PayPal or Stripe fees. So if you’re selling something that’s $20, you’d pocket $18.62.

Did I mention how easy it was to sign up? It’s scary easy, you can be selling products in minutes. To sign up, just go to ShopLocket.com and you can be selling almost instantly!

As an added bonus, ShopLocket is going to be randomly giving out FIVE $100 gift certificates to Michaels to people that sign up before midnight on November 16th! Enter below!

I'm so excited about this. I just was at a craft sale with a disappointing turn-out and I've found Etsy to be a lot of work to keep up with. I'll have to check this out for selling the things I've sewn.

Sounds like a great site that I could put on my blog. I'm going to sign up.. would sell my photo cards and extra product and kits from Close to My Heart (stamping and scrapbooking). How do I go there now to shop? or is it open yet for shopping??? would also sell some vintage cards that I make.
